HOME TOWN GLORY
Five years ago, Donnie Yen transformed almost overnight from a Hong Kong martial artist into a Hollywood star when he appeared as the blind warrior monk Chirrut Îmwe in Rogue One, the first Star Wars spin-off film. From then on, the blockbuster jobs have kept coming: in 2017 he co-starred with Vin Diesel and Samuel L Jackson in the action flick XXX: Return of Xander Cage, and he played the wise Commander Tung in Disney’s big-budget 2020 remake of Mulan. At the time of writing, he is in Paris with Keanu Reeves, filming John Wick: Chapter 4.
